PHOENIX (CBSNewYork/AP) — A New York Yankees lineup missing Giancarlo Stanton, Aaron Judge, and a bunch of other injured Bronx Bombers may finally be starting to catch up with them.
Ketel Marte homered, Merrill Kelly won his first start against the Yankees and Arizona beat New York 3-2 Wednesday to sweep a two-game series.
New York dropped to 0-5 this year against teams that currently have winning records, and is 17-8 against teams below .500. The Yankees had won nine of 10 heading into the series against the Diamondbacks, but wound up heading home 6-3 on their western swing.
